The Best Way to Beat Breast Cancer

An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Know the risk factors for breast cancer and avoid them—you can find a discussion by the Centers for Disease Prevention and Control here. According to the World Cancer Research Fund International:

“The Continuous Update Project Panel judged that for premenopausal breast cancer there was strong evidence that consumption of alcoholic drinks, greater birthweight and adult attained height are causes of premenopausal breast cancer. The panel also judged that there is strong evidence that vigorous physical activity and greater body fatness protect against premenopausal breast cancer.” (7)

In addition to family history and lifestyle factors, what you eat has a great deal to do with your health and how you feel. Find some anti-cancer foods here.

Read the labels of personal care products to avoid known cancer-causing chemicals.

You know your body better than anyone else.

By spending a few minutes to do a self breast exam, you can detect breast cancer in its early stages when it is easiest to treat and put a stop to it before it turns malignant.
